Artist

Catherine Angel began photographing her daughters in 1989 and her eloquent black and white images reflect motherhood, youth, and the effort to still moments of passing time, reflected harshly and softly as children grow. She writes, ‘My eyes and camera now hold fast to those nearest and dearest to my heart. I hold onto the moments like a madman, the inevitability of loss and the brevity of life nipping at my heels. I hold still the moment as it slips away, making visible this proof of stopping time on film.”
